OVERBED TABLE HOLDER SYSTEM

摘要

An overbed table holder system that allows a patient to dispose personal trash or hold a container filled desirable objects to a patient lying in a hospital bed. The system includes a moveable overbed table, a bag or container holding, an intermediate member disposed between the bag and container holding member and the table's perimeter side edge, and a ring element that receives either a disposable trash bag or a container holder. The ring element is connected to the intermediate member that temporarily snap fits against the perimeter side edge and over the table. During use, a disposable trash bag or one of two types of container holders may be placed over the ring element. Objects or containers may be placed inside the container holder. The intermediate member is forced against the perimeter side edge at a desired location to hold the bag or a container. The intermediate member may be easily moved to any location along the perimeter side edge and remove entirely for cleaning.
